There's a bat in my house

Lol gotta love the commitment there; taking a pic of the bat and the Supra. Both look cool.

Be very careful telling authorities about bats living in or around premises as the green brigade just love putting planning restraints on you if they feel their habitat could be threatened. Similarly with newts... No bats here guv'. They are all down the road.

I remember when I had a bat in my bathroom about a year ago. at about about 1am. Walked in to turn off the light and suddenly this thing flew in. It was moving so fast but staying clear of hitting anything - it was just a blur!

 

I promptly ran out screaming like a girl.

 

I thought at the time, that it was either a massive f*ck off bug or a bird. And they have beaks to peck you with. Built up the courage to go back in and when I could focus on it - I realized it was bat! Awesome!

 

I grabbed a bed sheet and tried netting it. I think on the third attempt I caught it. I realised I had got it when it wasn't zooming round the room and promptly started to carefully unbundle the sheet and there, sitting in the corner of the sheet was my breakfa- I mean, the bat. Tried to take some picks but they all came out blurred. I was also worried about using a flash on the blighter - disorientate him/her/breakfast?

 

So gingerly picked it up, shouted down to see if anyone wanted to see this awesomeness to which I got an expletive reply back and a stern recommendation to retire to my cot. I gently put him down on the edge of my roof before closing my window and fell asleep.

 

Thrilling stuff handling a bat - wish I'd had the foresight to take a picture of it dangling off something or flexing it's cute little wings on the bonnet of the Soop like some sort of hood ornament!

 

Amazing pictures.
